Whats on your turntable tonight? Gary Burton Quartet – Picture This (ECM 1982) Side 1. Normally give this a pass because it's mostly vibes. Dunno why but now it sounds great. Must be those springs. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @B. In the recording. I’d know that voice anywhere! | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Sara Grey With Ed Trickett - S/T (Folk-Legacy 1970)OK. You sit over in that channel, Sara, and I'll sit over in this one. We'll add in some post-echo too. Lovely. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @bkeske Must dig that out. It's been too long. Funny that you were there. I thought I heard you hollering. | |
Midrange Noise Seconded. That's pretty impressive @jwaudio . | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Pam Garner – Pam Garner Sings Quietly (Coral 1958)At the other end of the spectrum, this one's a lot quieter. Definitely a bunch of rows back. Gave it a bump. Better but noise floor is lifted too. Great voice. Shame it's not more in yo face! | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Gale Garnett – Lovin’ Place (RCA Victor 1965)Man, that’s a hot recording. Probably one of the loudest records per volume level setting I have. Solid performance. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? @reubent Yeah, it's a blast. | |
Lite Audio GA-31a phono preamp, is it a clone? It's an unusual circuit in that the tubes are used in what looks like a cascode configuration with transistors doing the amplification. Are the tubes there to add gain or flavor only? There's also a 47uF electrolytic cap on the single-ended input ... | |
Audio Research VT80SE amp vs Prima Luna EVO 400 or 300 Audio Research. Use the MFA tubes to tailor the sound. | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Gare Du Nord - Rendezvous 8:02 (Columbia 2018) | |
Whats on your turntable tonight? Peter Ludwig, Peter Wopke, Arben Spahiu - Café Banlieue (Farao Studios 2006) | |
Tube life If nothing else, put a smoke detector close by. | |
Herron VTPH-2A or Manley Chinook mk II phonostage You say the Herron was "measurably" superior to the Chinook. I'm almost certain this is a figure of speech. | |
Herron VTPH-2A or Manley Chinook mk II phonostage +1 @corucia Great answer. |
